Sheet Media Handling System For Aligned Insertion Of Single Sheet Medium

US Patent:
5595380, Jan 21, 1997
Filed:
Feb 28, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/396190
Inventors:
Thomas E. McCue - Vancouver WA
Raymond C. Sherman - Camas WA
Shannon D. Casey - Camas WA
Steve O. Rasmussen - Vancouver WA
Sandra Y. Okazaki - Redmond WA
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Company - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
B65H 526
US Classification:
271 909
Abstract:
A sheet media handling system is provided for use in a sheet processor (e. g. , a printer). Such system incorporates an input tray for storing one or more sheet media prior to input through the printer's input port with the input tray vertically stacked with the printer's output support structure or tray. The system also has a single sheet medium guide mechanism adjacent the printer's output support structure, where the medium guide mechanism routes a single medium to the input port when the single medium is inserted therein. The single sheet medium guide mechanism includes a skew-abatement substructure and a deflection mechanism. The skew-abatement substructure is designed to facilitate alignment of and routing of a single medium towards the input port by contacting a first edge of the single medium and an opposite second edge of the single medium. Such a deflection mechanism is designed to deflect a single medium toward and into the input port by contacting the upper surface of the single medium while also contacting the lower surface of the single medium. The invented system facilitates easy manual insertion and alignment of a single medium (e. g.

Z-Fold Print Media Handling System

US Patent:
5967677, Oct 19, 1999
Filed:
Jan 27, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/013851
Inventors:
Thomas E McCue - Vancouver WA
Gary Hays - Vancouver WA
John C Santon - Brush Prairie WA
Raymond C Sherman - Camas WA
William Watts - Vancouver WA
Jeffrey T Hendricks - Camas WA
Ivan F. Crespo - Vancouver WA
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Company - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
B41J 1142
US Classification:
400582
Abstract:
A Z-fold print media handling system for printing banners and the like uses an inkjet printing mechanism without a tractor-feed. A series of stuttering stopping and starting steps generates varying static and dynamic frictional forces to separate the first sheet of a Z-fold stack from the remainder of the stack. Both conventional cut-sheet media and Z-fold media are fed using the same printing mechanism, which pulls the media toward a printzone through frictional engagement with a first surface of the media. To prevent printhead crashes and smearing the image near the perforations joining the Z-fold sheets, the printhead to media spacing is increased for Z-fold media over the standard spacing used for cut-sheet media. A cam feature is incorporated into the media drive clutch disk to determine whether an operator has set a selector lever for cut-sheet or Z-fold printhead to media spacing.
